Just on Moltzen kick returns..have noticed that last year and in the first couple of games this year that the opposition have picked him up and dragged him a long way backwards. Am thinking this is why MP has got him to offload to either winger on deep kick returns?

There's no rush. Teddy looks the goods but I heard similar things about Shannon Macdonell once upon a time.
Ya never know with rookies. Nothing would suprise me.

As much as I dislike him... Its Moltzen's spot. He needs to be focused on doing his best for the tigers. Not playing with half an eye on Teddy.

You can't expect guys to play for each other as a team if you're just going to dump them cause someone MIGHT work out better. That should apply to everyone. You only need to look at the Australian Cricket Team (and NSW Origin side) to see what impulsive team changes can do.

If Moltzen gets injured or has to slot in at HB for Miller... its up to Teddy to make the most of his chance.

Hey, while Moltzen is going well, don't rock the boat. I would prefer to see a slaterish kind of player and thats tedessco, but unless injury or poor form require a chnage, we just have to play the cards were dealt. At least this year he's catching the ball and not letting it bounce all the time. Giddyup.

As usual Moltzen is unfairly criticised after a good game.

Im a big Tedessco fan and think he is an excellent long term prospect, that does impact on how Moltzen is deemed to have played, which so far this year is pretty good.

You dont have to return the ball like Karmichael Hunt to contribute at fullback

But it would be preferred over taking the ball up like Tiny Tim tiptoeing through the Tulips
